The Democratic Alliance has congratulated the new rector of the University of the Free State Jonathan Jansen for not allowing political authorities to push him around.
Spokesperson Wilmot James says Jansen embraces the values the DA believes are good for higher education and students.
In his inaugural address on Friday Jansen committed the institution to inviting the infamous Reitz students to complete their studies and withdraw university charges against them.
James says if the University withdrew the charges it’s their own decision and if it’s a gesture it’s a very commendable gesture.
